    Greg Daniels absolutely needs to do an Afghani adaptation of The Office. It would absolutely kill and be like my fave series of all time. This whole situation is beyond absurd and mundane and also insanely great c/LeopardsAteMyFace fodder

    How amazing would it be if office culture/politics was the thing (particularly “Western thing”) that eventually compelled the Taliban to throw in the towel and start doing something productive + peace

      Who would you cast as the Jim and the Dwight? I’m thinking Hasan Minhaj and Romesh Ranganathan.

      One’s Indian and the other’s Sri Lankan, but it’s close enough for Hollywood/BBC, amirite? 😛
